Today was Dustin and Lani's anniversary so they decided to spend the day on their boat and invited us to tag along. The sun was shining, we had a gallon of Margarita mix, a dozen doughnuts and a cooler full of beer... Life is Good! It was nice to take a break from working on our boat and finally go boating for a change. So the plan was to meet them in Kingston at noon. They keep their 26 footer moored in Everett and Dustin figured it would take an hour to get to Kingston..... Wrong. Ben and I got to Kingston around 11:30 and waited. and waited, and waited..... Apparently it takes about 2 1/2 hrs to go from Everett marina to Kingston. Who knew? So FINALLY around 2:30 they showed up and we spent the rest of the day just wandering around the bay, picking up driftwood (Is that illegal???) and just lounging and having a great time.
We saw several harbor seals and about 7 cruise ships heading out to open water. Holland America, Norwegian, Princess Cruise Lines. I tried to get Dustin to cruise close enough for me to throw a gaff hook so I could stow-away but he wouldn't do it. It was kinda weird seeing them all lined up one after the other all heading out.... Without me. Ben ended up taking a nap, Dustin refused sun screen and got BURNED like a boiled lobster, I drank so much Margarita I ended up with a touch of alcohol induced sun sickness.... Lani did just fine. Bitch! We got home around 8pm. Tired and sun burned. What a great day.
